Seat belt warning signal disconnect?
 

I recently bought a 93' protoge' dx w/ 120,000 miles for $2,500, and I'm very happy with the car. It seems to have many more miles left in it. However, I'm having a problem with the seat belt buckle warning beeper continuing to beep intermittently after the belts are buckled. Does anyone know which wire will disconnect the beeper from the harness under the fuse box? Also, I'd love to hear any positive feedback about the car I purchased.

Thanks,
Nathan

Ask Gro Harlem!!
 

Wil's got a nice how-to on that topic... I did it on my car (a '94dx) and it worked great... Very simple..

I can't remember too much of it off of the top of my head so I won't try to explain.. Very simple..

Connect 2 wires into the harness and it is done.. if I was to look at my car I could better explain.. ( it's been like 8 months or so..)

So do a search for Seat belt and see what yuou come up with... You will find his link in there somewhere and it will be Pictures and instructions, so anyone could do it....

thanks!
 

I just want to say thanks for the info and the quick replies. This is really an amazing forum. The car is actually my wife's, and now I'll be gettin' some good brownie points when I fix that annoying beep.

Thanks again,
Nathan

thanks for posting that "how to"!! :bigthumb: i knew i had seen it before, but i looked this morning and i couldn't find it anywhere. my '94 has been crazily beeping on and off again for the past few weeks, and now i know how to shut it up. thanks again. :D

my seatbelt no longer slides back and forth. i checked all the fuses and they look good. does anyone know how to fix that problem? :confused:

I had the same problem.. My drivers side is screwed... I finally took it off.. had it disconnected forever than just removed the whole thing.. Sux without it.. Gotta get one soon.. My cable finally popped out of the track on it after awhile af trying to go.. the motor is good, but.. THe cable is all torn up.. it popped out and there was bare cable, and pieces of plastic sticking off of it.. So it could be that too.. Does it try to move??

it worked!
 

well, it worked like a charm. that's a great little piece you wrote, and thanks again for the good info.

jcon: nope, the seatbelt slider doesn't attempt to move at all. the driver's side is completely dead and the passenger side works when it wants to. :rolleyes:

cablemirc: thanks for the insite about the mazda recall stuff. i'm going to check that out tomorrow. :D

Already tried the recall Tito!!
 

I already tried the recall info Tito, i also have a '94 DX, maybe yours was built at a diff. time and place so i would still try it for yours, mine came up nuthin...

i know what we need... 1st gen automatic seat belts converted to 3rd gen seat belts. no more pain in the ass malfunctioning automatic ones

no joke. man thats pissing me off!:mad:

i tried the "my mazda" stuff at mazdausa.com, and i had no luck either. it states that there aren't any recalls in regards to my VIN number. :rolleyes:
